Rusty draper in the middle of the house lyrics

The railroad comes through the middle of the house 

 The railroad comes through the middle of the house 

 The trains all come through the middle of the house 

 Since the company bought the land 

  

 They let us live in the front of the house 

 They let us live in the back 

 But there ain't no livin' in the middle of the house 

 'Cause that's the railroad track 

  

 When a bill collector comes to the house 

 He knocks and bangs on the door 

 So we sit him right down in the middle of the house 

 And he never comes back no more 

  

 The railroad comes through the middle of the house 

 The railroad comes through the middle of the house 

 It comes and goes through the middle of the house 

 And the trains are all on time 

  

 Here comes the five-o-nine 

 singin' this song in the middle of the house 

  

 The railroad comes through the middle of the house 

 In and out of the middle of the house 

 Right smack dab through the middle of the house 

 Where the parlor used to be 

  

 There's a great big door in the front of the house 

 There's a little old door in the back 

 But we can't have doors in the middle of the house 

 'Cause that's the railroad track 

  

 A relative came to visit the house 

 He liked to scream and fuss 

 So we sat him right down in the middle of the house 

 And he never more bothered us 

  

 The railroad comes through the middle of the house 

 The railroad comes through the middle of the house 

 It comes and goes through the middle of the house 

 Since the company bought the land
